These are the mainstream conservatives on CNN's 'hate group' list
Conservative Review ^ | 08/19/2017 | Jordan Schachtel

CNN has published a list of “hate groups” currently operating in the United States, relying on an extremely partisan analysis from the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC).

Several truly extremist groups populate the list, such as the Ku Klux Klan, New Black Panthers, Nation of Islam, and others.

But along with the neo-Nazi and Islamic extremist groups on the list, the SPLC has lumped in as “hate groups” mainstream, well-known conservative individuals and organizations who merely speak out about the threat of radical Islam. Here are some that were included on the list.

On the “hate group” list

David Horowitz Freedom Center

The influential California-based conservative organization describes its mission as “dedicated to the defense of free societies whose moral, cultural and economic foundations are under attack by enemies both secular and religious, at home and abroad.” The group focuses on combatting the far Left and Islamist allies. The SPLC labels the center, which is supported by thousands of conservatives, as “anti-immigrant” and “anti-Muslim.”

Five years ago an armed man, using the Southern Poverty list, entered Family Research Council intent on murder.

Tony Perkins was on Turcker’s show discussing it Friday.

They need to sue SPLC for millions.

Well thanks goodness CNN doesn’t count for ####.

Or we wouldn’t have a President Trump.

People here worry too much about cnn when they’ve had no noticeable effect on any election or any matter in a long time.

What’s this media behemoth’s viewership these days?

From the far left Southern Poverty Law Center...

“At one recent speech in favor of Charlottesville’s status as a sanctuary city, Kessler live-streamed himself as an attendee questioned him and apologized for an undisclosed spat during Kessler’s apparent involvement with Occupy. Kessler appeared visibly perturbed by the woman’s presence and reminders of their past association.”

“A “journalist, activist and author from Charlottesville, VA,” Kessler’s LinkedIn account states that he graduated of the University of Virginia in 2009. He was virtually unknown in the media prior to his crusade against Charlottesville Vice Mayor and City Councilman Wes Bellamy.”

Morris Dees divorce papers tell you everything about the foundation of this slimey group.

I think it’s excellent to know this. There needs to be public pressure on the SPLC to go sane or go home.

Well, birds of a feather DO flock together. (Often these lefty groups are also hardly stellar examples of racial integration.)

In some ways I’m a bit sorry that we didn’t make the list. It would be a badge of honor to be on a list headed by David Horowitz.

At one time, SPLC listed Gun Owners of America as a “militia”. Laughable. Morris Dees’ proto-communists should themselves be listed as a terrorist organization (their intent is to destroy our institutions and form of government, let’s face it)

FR is probably still too tame, still too much teapot contained to its tempests.

The SPLC screwed over a friend of mine of long standing. He got into trouble with the law and the cops entered his house and among the many collectibles he possessed there was some German stuff from WW2.

He was publicly branded as a ‘Neo-Nazi’ on their website. He is SUPER-PISSED about it, and he’s right to be. It seems that they play very fast and loose with the truth. But we all here already knew that.

The DNC — main organization of the Democrat party in the U.S. — put out a statement after Bannon left this week that it was “one less white supremacist in the White House.”

We’ve passed the point of ‘loyal opposition’ and the two party system as acceptable to the Leftists.

Anyone who opposes them is a fascist and ‘peace through violence’ is the justified response.

This Hate Group designation justifies violence and the end of conversation. There’ s no longer a need for political debate because Leftists no longer discuss or debate. They name call and beat up opposition.

The SPLC is itself a hate organization. Its main reason for existence is fund-raising for the benefit of its corrupt founder Morris Dees and his corrupt staff.
